THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HIDDEN TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OF 1947

John S. Torell

LACK OF BIBLICAL KNOWLEDGE
When it comes to biblical knowledge and understanding of whom the Devil is, where he comes from, and how he operates, the average Christian knows very little. The reason for this is that the people in charge of the different denominations and the theology taught at seminaries and Christian colleges have for hundreds of years tried to suppress the truth that the Devil is real and that his fallen angels are roaming the earth doing great damage.

Secondly, most of the mainline denominations have been denying the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and that miracles from God continue to happen. To suppress and deny this truth, they cannot afford to have a strong teaching on the Devil and that the spirit world is real. This results in the believers in Christ being lied to and they, in turn, are left ignorant of the truth.

Growing up in Sweden, I attended Sunday school in the Mission Covenant Church and was also confirmed in the State Lutheran Church, of which all Swedes automatically became members at birth. (Today there is no longer a State Lutheran Church in Sweden). We were told that the Devil existed, that he was very evil and hated God, but what else he did we were never told.

In 1966, when I rededicated my life to Christ and affirmed my salvation which had taken place when I was a child, my wife and I joined a Southern Baptist Church in Salt Lake City. We had two great pastors, but again they did not teach much about the Devil and his activities, so we did not pay much attention to the evil spirit world. Demons were never talked about and the understanding was that the casting out of demons was something that had taken place when Jesus walked on the earth before his crucifixion, but that demons somehow had disappeared and we did not have to deal with them anymore. After my time at the seminary, from 1969 to 1973, I graduated with a master's degree of divinity without having received any doctrinal teaching on the Devil and his fallen angels. Therefore, as an evangelist and later as a pastor I could not teach on this subject to the people attending our services.

When I began to encounter people with demonic problems, it forced me to study the doctrine of the Devil as presented in the Bible and the more I learned the more I realized how crippled was the Christian Church. I now want to present to you a solid Bible-based doctrine on the Devil and the fallen angels, based upon my studies in the Bible. In order to understand the end times, UFOs and the coming reign of the Antichrist, this knowledge from the Bible is a must.

BIBLICAL DOCTRINE OF THE DEVIL AND HIS FALLEN ANGELS
The first encounter with the Devil recorded in the Bible is found in Genesis, chapter 3, verses 1-15, wherein we are told that the serpent came and tempted Eve to partake of the fruit of “the tree of knowledge of good and evil,” who in turn gave the fruit to Adam. This act of disobedience¹ brought spiritual death to them and they became sinful creatures and were separated from God. Who the serpent was is not told in this passage, but the serpent is identified in this Bible passage:

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation 12:9

Let me now lay out the entire doctrine as presented in the Bible. We do not have a specific chapter in the Bible where this is done; instead we have to piece it together from different verses found in both the Old and the New Testaments.

THE ORIGIN OF THE DEVIL
God tells us through the prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel that the name of the Devil from the beginning was "Lucifer," which means "Shining one." God did not create the Devil; Lucifer became the Devil when he rebelled against God.

It is extremely important that the Christian understand, that before God began the creation of the universe, including the earth, he created all of the angels. When we read the creation account in Genesis, chapter one and two, there is no reference to the creation of the angels. But in the book of Job we are told that the angels were with God and rejoiced when the universe was created.

AT THIS TIME I WANT TO STATE THAT I DO NOT BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION BUT I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT GOD IS THE CREATOR AND THAT ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM.

If we take a look at Genesis 1:1, we are told that God created the heavens and the earth (notice that in the Hebrew text "heavens" is in plural, which also is consistent with other references in the Bible, like 2 Peter 3:12). In verse two we are told that the earth was without form (destroyed) and that it was covered with darkness (void). God did not create a destroyed earth, something must have happened, but what? Only by piecing together the history of the angels, can we come to understand that there was a time period in the universe, when man did not exist but the universe was filled with angel civilizations, just like it is today.

Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? Job 38:1-7

ALL ANGELS CREATED HOLY AND WITHOUT SIN
All angels were created holy and without sin. There were so many created that God could not give a number to men (Hebrews 12:22). Knowing the vastness of the universe and that God had the angels to occupy all the celestial bodies, we are not looking at billions of angels, the number is so vast that we have no name for it; we can only use the mathematic expression of a number to the "n"th power.

It is obvious that the reason for the creation of so many angels is that they do not have the capacity to propagate, they do not marry since there are no male and female angels, they are all of the same gender. Here is what Jesus said on this subject:

The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him, Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother: Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh. And last of all the woman died also. Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her. Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. Matthew 22:23-30

ALL ANGELS ARE NOT ALIKE
The angels were created in different shapes, as God had them form civilizations with an extremely high technological development. We must now remember that the angels can operate as easily in the spiritual realm as in the physical realm, which man cannot do and is forbidden to do. Reading the Bible, we are told that there was space travel between the different angelic civilizations in the universe. There were commerce and development of different planets. Despite the fact that the angels are spirit beings, they designed and built physical space crafts, and we can see examples of this in the following Bible references:

And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me. And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so. And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces. 2 Kings 2:9-12

Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity, The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him. And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire. Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass. And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies. And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went. As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning. And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning. Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces. The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went. As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four. And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above. And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies. And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings. And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads, when they stood, and had let down their wings. And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it. And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake. Ezekiel 1:1-28

THE FALL OF LUCIFER
Lucifer was one of the most powerful angels created. Not all angels have access to the very throne room of God, but Lucifer had full access. His rank was CHERUB, but not just a “Cherub” but an “anointed Cherub.” He walked up and down in the most holy of holy places, having full access to God himself and leading angels in their worship of God. He was created with music as part of him, so was able to produce magnificent and beautiful worship music that filled the throne room of God with praise. He was one of the most beautiful angels created and he was a shining light, reflecting the glory of God.

For some reason that the Bible does not explain to us, he was also the king of the planet Earth (before Adam and Eve were created) where there were beings which had less power than angels and they were divided up into nations. What kind of beings these were, the Bible does not tell us. The city on Earth that Lucifer ruled from was called "Eden." It is clear that the level of civilization on earth at this time was very advanced, far beyond what man has been able to develop so far. If we compare our current level of development in the world today with angelic civilization, man is living in a “stone age."

The Bible tells us that at some time in this pre-historic time Lucifer became dissatisfied with his position, and decided to rebel against God. He went so far that he decided to attack God himself, dethrone him and establish his own throne above the throne of God. What caused Lucifer to embark on such a total suicidal move cannot be understood by the human mind. God is the source of all power and he is the Creator, how can a created being try to take control over his own creator? Here is the Biblical account from this pre-Adamic time:

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Isaiah 14:12-15

Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Ezekiel 28:11-15

DEFINITION OF THE WORD ANGEL
In order for the Christian to understand the terms used in the Bible, let us look at this brief identification of the word "angel." In Genesis 3:24, the angels of God in charge of the flaming sword were called "Cherubims." In Genesis 6:1-2, the angels (in this instance fallen angels) were called "Sons of God." The same term is used in Job 1:6, including holy and fallen angels. Angels are also called "Watchers" and “Holy ones." (Daniel 4:13-17) In Psalm 89:6, angels are called, "sons of the Mighty." Jesus speaks of the angels, being used to gather all of the believers in Christ – Matthew 24:31. In Revelation 12:3-4, the angels are called "stars of heaven."

PRE-ADAMIC TIME
In the Book of Revelation, we have the following accounts of this pre-Adamic time:

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. Revelation 12:3-4

This is the reference in the Bible that tells us that Lucifer was able to convince one third of the angels to rebel against God. The result was a devastating war raging throughout the entire universe. Here is how the Bible tells it:

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven. Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Revelation 12:7-12

Some Christians are trying to say that the reference to the war in heaven and the confinement of Satan is going to take place in the future. Jesus did not believe this; here is what he said when he walked on earth:

And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven. Luke 10:17-20

SUMMARY OF THE WAR AND ITS AFTERMATH
If we take all of these references in the Bible, the following picture will emerge: at some time Lucifer became dissatisfied with his position as a cherub and decided to rebel against God. At this point in time he must have stopped coming to the throne room of God in the third heaven which is outside the universe itself. (The Bible tells us of three heavens, the first heaven is the atmosphere of the earth, the second is the universe and the third is the dwelling place of God Himself – 2 Corinthians 12:1-5)

Lucifer contacted every angel civilization and presented himself as a powerful alternate for God, and one third of the angels believed him and joined him in the rebellion. Lucifer and his followers then manufactured "space ships," which were equipped with weapons, to be used in the coming war, which aimed at subduing the angel civilizations that had opted to stay with God. Lucifer's plan must have been that once he had defeated the Holy Angels, he would turn all of his might on God Himself and attack Him in the third heaven.

Instead of winning this war, which must have devastated whole planets in the universe, Lucifer was defeated by the Holy Angels under the command of Michael, the Archangel, described as one of the chief princes (Archon) in heaven (Daniel 10:12-13).

With the ability that mankind has today in viewing planets in our own solar system, we can see that the surfaces, for example, on the Moon and Mars are extremely scarred and scientists cannot explain how these surfaces ended up so damaged. Knowing about the space war will explain that battles must have been fought on these surfaces and with the superior weapons of lasers, particle beams and other sophisticated weapons of energy, that we as humans do not know of at this time, we can now understand why these surfaces are damaged. After all, the Bible tells us that the earth itself was without form and void, the Hebrew text describes it as "a formless void or chaos." (Genesis.1:2) Certainly God did not start out creating the earth in chaos.

The Bible does not tell us how long this space war lasted. It is futile for us humans to try putting a time frame on it, instead we have to just accept the fact that it did happen. Once the war was over and Lucifer and his fallen angels were taken "into custody" by God's holy angels, there must have been a trial. Jesus tells us that the Lake of Fire was not prepared for mankind, but for the Devil and his fallen angels:

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Matthew 25:41

Using this method of deduction, we can come to the following conclusion: Before God commenced a judgment on a human being or a nation, there has always been a warning first and then the sentence stated as to what will be for the trespasser. There is also a judgment seat for the Believers in Christ –

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. 2 Corinthians 5:10-11

And there is a judgment seat for the unbelievers and all others born during the 1000 year kingdom –

And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15

But when God’s sentence is carried out for Lucifer, he is thrown directly into the Lake of Fire.
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Revelation 20:10

THE TRIAL OF LUCIFER
There is no chapter and verse in the Bible where this is brought out, but a number of Bible verses indicate that this is what happened. The indictment can be read in the following Bible verses:

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet. Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned. Isaiah 14:12-20

Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more. Ezekiel 28:14-19

Lucifer and the angels who had followed him in rebellion were sentenced to the Lake of Fire where they shall be tormented day and night forever and ever. But it is obvious to all people living on the earth that the sentence has not been carried out. Why? Here is the understanding that the Holy Spirit has given to me: As soon as the sentence was handed down, Lucifer appealed it and accused God of being an unrighteous God. How could a loving God be so cruel that he would send his created beings into an everlasting punishment? I have heard that line for the last 35 years from the lips of unsaved people. Lucifer had now put a doubt into all the angels God had created. God had to show that his sentence was just and that Lucifer was at fault, not God. The sentence was stayed, while God was going to work it out.

The thought of God standing accused and forced to prove his righteousness can be found in Romans 3:5-26 and Ephesians 3:1-11.

However, the Bible tells us clearly that the entire universe was swept clean of sin and that Lucifer and his fallen angels were taken to the planet Earth, which now became a "giant prison camp."

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. Revelation 12:7-10

RESTORATION OF THE EARTH
With the earth devastated from the intense battles of the space war, God then set out to reshape the earth. A number of scientists are teaching that the ocean floors were at one time the dry land upon the earth and the land masses that are currently making up our continents used to be under the oceans. Even at high elevations of the mountains we have today, geologists are finding plankton and shell fish infused in different strata. Does this have support in the Bible? Look at this Bible reference:

Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains. At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them. Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth. Psalm 104:5-9²

There is another prophecy from God given to the prophet Ezekiel over the king of Tyrus. At the time when the prophet Ezekiel lived on earth (around 500 B.C.) there was a city/kingdom called Tyrus (Tyre) and it was situated on the coast of Lebanon, with the capital built upon an island about half a mile from the shore. The beach at this place in Lebanon was very rocky and heavily fortified and the island, itself was very heavily fortified. The city had been established in the 14th century B.C. and was the center of all seafaring commerce at that time. Tyrus was taken by king Nebuchadnezzar (King of Babylon) after a siege that lasted 13 years. In 322 B.C., Alexander the Great built a causeway to the island during a seven month siege after which he took the city. But the city was rebuilt and Jesus himself visited the city of Tyre. (Matthew 15:21 and Mark 7:24). The apostle Paul spent seven days in the city (Acts 21:3-7) and a Christian church was established there during the first century. In the 13th century, the city was attacked by Islamic armies, as it was a stronghold for the Christian Crusaders. At that time, the city was destroyed and never recovered from that destruction. As of 1957, the city had some 5,000 people living there with very poor housing and conditions.

Tyrus is also extremely important to Freemasons, who travel there as "pilgrims" giving homage to this kingdom which was a stronghold of the Cabala and its alliance with king Solomon, the developer of the Cabala, the main doctrine of all Freemasonry.³ Empowering the king of Tyrus was Lucifer himself. Thus the prophecy in the following verses is not aimed at the city on the island outside the coast of Lebanon, but against another city which existed before man was created:

Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee? Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and lay away their robes, and put off their broidered garments: they shall clothe themselves with trembling; they shall sit upon the ground, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished at thee. And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it! Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure. For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee; When I shall bring thee down with them that descend into the pit, with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living; I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith the Lord GOD. Ezekiel 26:15-21

The physical city of Tyrus on the coast of Lebanon is still there and people live there and the old ruins can be seen. But that other Luciferian city of Tyrus is buried under the ocean never to be found again. People involved in the occult have written many books about the mystery city called "Atlantis." There is no doubt in my mind that demons over the years have told the story of this city to men and women, who have entered the occult world.

WHY DID GOD REVERSE LAND TO SEA BOTTOM AND VICE VERSA?
This is my understanding. Man is created with intelligence and it is with our intelligence that man has developed the civilization we are now living in. If man had lived on the same ground that the advanced Luciferian civilization had once occupied, there would have been all kinds of archeological finds and very quickly man would have built up a technology that God did not want for him. Look at this Bible reference:

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth. Genesis 11:1-9

MORATORIUM ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGY
The people descending from Noah and his three sons had knowledge of the civilization prior to the flood, which had been developed by the offspring of the fallen angels, who had created a half human half demonic race of beings. God did not want man at this time to develop technology to a higher level; if they had been able to, it would have been a disaster for the human race.

I am now going to share with you some excerpts from a teaching I did several years ago when I examined what happened before the flood, entitled "As the Days of Noah Were". This information is taken from the Book of Enoch, which is not included in the Bible, but was quoted by Moses, Jesus and the apostle Jude:

"One of the fallen angels taught technology to mankind. He taught them how to mine for ore, melting the ore and extracting different metals. He then taught them how to fashion the metals into swords, knives, shields and breast plates.

“Those who became initiated into this demon religion were educated into making bracelets, decorations (shadowing of the eye); making medication (pharmakia), ornamentation, the beautifying of the eye lids, all kind of precious stones, and all coloring tinctures and alchemy.

“Other fallen angels taught humans how to do incantations and the cutting of roots, how to resolve incantations, astrology, and how to deceive people.

“The fallen angels also introduced the technology of writing and the use of ink and paper. This was used to write down false doctrine and to preserve the incantations and ceremonies that the fallen angels had taught people.

“Demons do not release technology to benefit mankind, but to advance man's ability to wage war and do mass destruction. However, God did not create this technology for war, but for the benefit of his creation. Thus we can see that where the Christian faith is the strongest, there is also the greatest development of technology for peaceful use.

“Again I want to emphasize the following: Technology in itself is not bad. It is part of God's creation and everything that God created was and is good. (Genesis 1:31). When the fallen angels introduced knowledge to mankind, it was not for the purpose of improving man's living conditions, but rather to provide them weapons of mass destruction.

“Lucifer was not satisfied to build human armies equipped with stone weapons, so the demons taught men how to dig mines, getting ore to melt, extracting gold, silver, copper and iron. Then mix the metals to make swords, knives, spears, etc. Then armies could be built and unleashed to subdue other nations.

“When God destroyed the race of giants (half human/half demon), he put a moratorium on further technical developments. From about 6000 B.C. until around 1700 A.D., some 7,700 years, man did not learn any new technology, only improved on what was there. For this entire period, the wind was the only power for ships, including using men with oars. Horses, camels, elephants, and donkeys were the power source for land travel and other work.

“It is interesting to note that in the 14th century, Leonardo de Vinci designed air planes and submarines etc., but did not have any power source for them.

“Electricity was unknown to man, but those dabbling in the occult spoke about some unknown power. When Enoch wrote about the coming flood, he described the water in the air (clouds and the frozen canopy of water which at that time enveloped the earth) as masculine, and the water on the earth as feminine. Today we know that water clouds have a positive electric charge and that lightning consists of electrons rushing up to neutralize the water in the air.

“The Chinese called it "Yin and Yang," and this term is still used in occult practices. The first power source to be discovered was the water wheel, which goes back for centuries. In 1663, static electricity was discovered, followed by the steam engine in 1769. Man's knowledge of electricity developed during this period, and we learned about direct current and then alternating current. The first water turbine was introduced in 1826 and the first functional combustion engine came on the market in 1878. In the early 20th century the rocket engine was developed, then the jet engine, then came nuclear power.

“It is known in scientific circles that the UFO’s are powered by either electro magnetic propulsion or reverse gravity. So far, man has not been able to penetrate and capture this power source.

“So far during the last 7000 years Satan has been spearheading technology to further weapons of mass destruction and devices to enslave people.

“On the other hand, God's people have developed and enhanced known technology to give man a better standard to reach a higher standard of living.”

SATAN CANNOT BRING IN THE ANTICHRIST WITHOUT A HIGH LEVEL OF TECHNOLOGY ON THE EARTH
“For the Devil to bring in the Antichrist system, he must have a certain level of technology in order to control the masses of people. The gifts that the Devil has been giving to mankind during the years have been weapons of war. The bow and arrow, the catapult, the battering ram, ships with battering rams driven by chained slaves using oars, traps of different kinds etc.

“Once gun powder (black powder first discovered in 1304) was given to man, came rifles, pistols, cannons and land mines etc. With the discovery of smokeless gunpowder came more powerful guns, capable of killing more people faster.

“With digital cameras, computers, lasers and satellites the Devil now has the technology to control all movements of people on the earth, along with all commerce and all banking. It is now only a question of time, when the final move will come, which the Bible calls the "THE GREAT TRIBULATION." (End of Quote)

As it was in the days of Noah, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be! Matthew 24:37-39

The theological doctrine that I am writing in this newsletter is not something that I learned in seminary, neither have I read it in some books or other writings from other people. Rather, this is a revelation from the Holy Spirit Himself, pointing me to scripture references in the Bible and then putting it into one solid picture. This is the first time that I am writing it down in some kind of chronological order. I urge each reader to take out your Bible and check it out for yourself and if you use a real Bible, a King James Bible you will be able to verify it. But if you use a "bastard Bible" like the "NIV," or a "trash Bible" like the "Message," you will be unable to verify what I have written.

THE AGE OF TEMPTATION
A special court was established that did not exist before which was open to Lucifer, whose name now had been changed to Satan (the name has two meanings, "the Hater" and "the Accuser”).

God as the Judge of Satan set forth the following rules: He was going to create a new species, the human race. They would be placed on the restored earth. Man would be created holy and with a free will. God was going to allow access of the man to Satan, who then would have the opportunity to tempt the man to sin. In order to make the temptation real, God placed "the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil" in the Garden of Eden and told man not to eat of it.

Thus the angels, good and bad, could see for themselves, that if a created being with a free will chose to sin, it could not be blamed on God, but on the creature. It was his choice. In order to make it "fair" for the Devil, Adam would not be told about the test he was going to face. The rest is history, as recorded in Genesis, chapters two and three.

The Devil did not know the hidden plan that God had designed, even before he had started the creation of the angels. It was going to be hid by God until after the Son of God, Jesus Christ had come to live on the earth and then die on the cross. Look at these Scriptures. There was no provision of redemption for the angels, once they fell into sin:

Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. Wherefore in all things it behooved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted. Hebrews 2:14-18

Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 1 Peter 1:12

The apostle Paul speaks of the mystery of the Gospel, and that it was hid from Satan and his fallen angels; otherwise they would have stopped the murder of Jesus on the cross!

Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1 Corinthians 2:6-8

Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power. Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: Ephesians 3:7-11

EVERY HUMAN BEING MUST BE TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL
Once Adam and Eve fell into sin, they lost dominion over the earth and it was transferred to the Devil, who now became known as, "The Prince of the World." (John 14:30) However, strict rules were put on the Devil and the fallen angels; they could only enter and possess human beings, if the human being first could be enticed to "contact" the spirit world. Thus Satan set up different religions and occult teaching leading to secret societies, worship of Satan and witchcraft.

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 1 Timothy 4:1-2

Even if the Devil is the Prince of this World, God's holy angels are on earth en masse to make sure that Satan and his fallen angels "toe the line" and can only do what God has allowed them to do. When some of the fallen angels stepped over the line and started to have sexual intercourse with women, God stepped in and the entire human races, the animal kingdom including birds and insects, were all exterminated, except for Noah, his three sons and wives and the animals, birds and insects God brought into the Ark. (Genesis 6:1-21) The 200 fallen angels were seized by God's holy angels and placed in a special prison, called "Tartarus."

For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; 2 Peter 2:4-5

And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Jude 6

FOUR STRONG REFERENCES TO THE LAW OF TEMPTATION
The first one is found in the book of Job, chapters one and two. In these chapters we are told that there is a place in the universe, where, on a regular basis, the Devil shows up to lodge his complaints and accuse people living on earth. He is here granted certain requests, but he can only do what he has legally been given. Twice he tried to make Job blaspheme God and make a point for Satan, but despite the severity of his attacks, he was not able to move Job against God.

The second one is found in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 22, verses 31-34, when Jesus told the Apostle Peter that Satan had requested to have access to Peter and "sift him like wheat." The request was not denied by God and Satan was able to make Peter deny Jesus three times.

The third reference is found in Matthew, chapter four, verses 1-11. Here we find the Son of God himself, after he had been baptized in water and endued with power of the Holy Spirit (Matt.3:13-17), being led out into the wilderness, where he fasted 40 days and nights. After this rigorous fasting, he faced the Devil himself, and was tempted three times. Satan lost this round, but had he been able to make Jesus give in, there would have been no redemption for mankind on Calvary.

The fourth reference is found in the book of Revelation, chapter twenty, verses 7-10. After the earth has been free of Satan and his fallen angels (demons/devils) for 1000 years, millions upon millions of people who have not been born again will be tested to see who they will follow, God or Satan. This is the last and final effort of the Devil.

2. Psalm 104 is referring to the creation.
